"Alright!"
Wang Wu agreed without a mont’s hesitation or delay. Why not? He liked such days too.
You see, he was almost cultivating the Path of Sincerity.
However, after he agreed, there was a subtle change in his heart. It was hard to understand what exactly, but it was certain that the future would bring changes.
"What’s wrong?"
"The future might change, but I don’t have any more specific feelings."
Wang Wu closed his eyes and pondered, trying hard to recall, but it really felt like a dream; the more he tried to rember, the more it faded.
The Frost Monarch silently watched him until he slumped in defeat, then she smiled and said, "Looks like your Ancient Blood isn’t pure enough to et the standard of becoming a Great Witch Priest. I was wondering why that Ancient Bear Daluo didn’t just take you away directly or summon you with an Immortal Decree. Would you dare refuse?"
"So that’s the case. You can’t even foresee the future."
"Which is more difficult: foreseeing the future or realigning directions?" Wang Wu asked curiously.
"Realigning directions is of course more difficult. Foreseeing the future doesn’t necessarily rely on Ancient Blood alone; certain Divine Techniques can also do it. For example, that grey sparrow, but sotis the foreseen future isn’t always accurate and can trigger other changes. You should have experienced this firsthand."
"But it shouldn’t be the case. In your Great Wilderness Sin Prison Tower, there must be a few extrely pure-blooded descendants of the Nine Demons. I’ve seen your beloved friends and family, and they all fall short by quite a bit, even you are slightly lacking..."
"Then I know who it is!"
At that mont, Wang Wu suddenly rembered, "But it seems that he has already died. He mysteriously disappeared before Elder Hui accepted as a disciple. Another person disappeared with him, whom I suspect was taken by the Thief Sect."
"Oh, share your mory with ." The Frost Monarch beca curious upon hearing this, approached Wang Wu, and clasped his neck with her hands, pressing her forehead against his brow.
Wang Wu imdiately recalled all his past interactions with the Five Poison Sect and Yue Mountain, naturally including Lu Wuchen and others.
After a long while, the Frost Monarch sat back, giving him a sidelong glance.
"This Five Poison Sect and Yue Mountain are likely candidates with very pure Ancient Blood for the Great Witch Priest. However, I suspect Lu Wuchen more; he more closely matches the standard for a Human Race Astronor Prophet."
"But he’s dead."
"Do you really think he’s dead?"
The Frost Monarch gazed at Wang Wu with a half-smile, "You truly underestimate the Power of Daluo and the need of Daluo for a Great Witch Priest and an Astronor Prophet."
"Let put it this way: by now, you yourself know how to construct a Miniature Sin Prison Tower. Tell , when a group of First-Grade Cultivators, led by several Tier Three Earth Immortals, was breaking into the Great Wilderness Sin Prison Tower, how did they do it?"
"But—those Daluo had no need to do this at all." Wang Wu was startled; this was sothing he had never thought of.
"Why not do it? You think it’s like buying livestock—just standing outside and pointing at what you want, this one or that one?"
"You’re not the true standard, the qualified and outstanding pure-blooded Nine Demon yourself, so you naturally can’t feel it. What Daluo needs is naturalness because they require the Great Witch Priest, and the Astronor Prophet to be utterly loyal to them. This cannot be achieved by re intimidation. It requires naturally pushing certain incidents."
"In your understanding, Lu Wuchen was already dead when the Great Wilderness Sin Prison Tower was breached, a corpse then utilized impersonally by the Thief Sect. But if my guess is correct, by that ti, Lu Wuchen had already had official contact with a disciple sent by the Human Race Daluo. It may be a romantic encounter, perhaps a beauty rescuing a hero, in any case, treatnt you cannot imagine, much less envy."
"I can even bet with you. You’ve been arduously cultivating for eight thousand years, only just reaching the tail end of a Half-step Daluo. Yet Lu Wuchen might already be a core disciple of the Profound Celestial Sect or the Cyan Cloud Sect, already a Half-step Daluo."
Wang Wu was dumbfounded by what he heard.
At this mont, the Frost Monarch continued, "That Great Wilderness Sin Prison Tower of yours back then actually belonged to the Ancient Bear Daluo. The na under which people were imprisoned there doesn’t matter; what matters is the harvest."
"The Human Race Daluo reaped Lu Wuchen, while the Ancient Bear Daluo likely reaped Five Poison and Yue Mountain. Of course, it’s possible they were still slightly below Lu Wuchen, so the Ancient Bear Daluo didn’t personally send anyone, but rather had the Mang Mountain Ancient Bear secretly take them away. Naturally, this brings with it the potential for different outcos, though that’s rely a strong possibility."
"I even suspect there may be hidden truths within this."
"Naturally, had you achieved your current accomplishnts back then, you would have been taken long ago, without all this suffering."
"But I must be honest with you. Today, even if you were taken and beca a Great Witch Priest, you wouldn’t be a chief Great Witch Priest, or even a second or third-seat Great Witch Priest. Such matters still depend on what’s Innate."
"I see."
Wang Wu nodded, realizing that Lu Wuchen might indeed still be alive, living arrogantly. It stung, dear friend.
And as for Five Poison and Yue Mountain, who could have thought? When they mysteriously disappeared back then, he thought they had been captured for Alchemy.
But no matter, he’s doing quite well now.
"Husband, it’s late at night; ti to rest."
...
As the sun rose high, Wang Wu and the Frost Monarch both awoke from their extraordinary states, each having gained much.
Because the convergence of Yin and Yang is considered the third-ranked thod for guiding cultivation direction, it’s been that way historically.
Of course, the effect is considerably discounted; Wang Wu and the Frost Monarch, for instance, don’t even achieve a fraction of the effect of the Yin and Yang Qi irradiation. Not to ntion ordinary mortals, cultivators, and Earth Immortals.
Perhaps only Taiyi is qualified, but that requires eting various prerequisites.
eting the right person is very important.
"It seems there’s a cultivator undergoing tribulation on the east shore of the big lake today."
Wang Wu glanced into the distance and suddenly spoke.
"Right, so we need to evade it, best to relocate. You see, the consequence of activating the miniature Sin Prison Tower and adjusting the Yin and Yang Qi is here. This is already the minimum amount, which won’t trigger a celestial law early warning, but even that mont of Yin and Yang Qi irradiation has greatly improved the cultivation environnt within a hundred thousand miles."
"Many cultivators, many little demons in the mountains have entered the path because of you. This first-grade cultivator has particularly benefited from your aura, and if he succeeds in crossing the tribulation, this area might just beco a hub for cultivators."
"So the sooner the better, ti to move."
Wang Wu said with a cheerful smile; such a big deal, everything was packed up in no ti, and the two turned into a drifting white cloud, having already traveled hundreds of thousands of miles away.
However, finding another lake as privileged as before is incredibly difficult.
Actually, Wang Wu himself doesn’t mind, but since the Frost Monarch likes it, they can only keep looking.
Yet, after half a day, they had traveled millions of miles, still without a suitable location.
"After the weakening of the twenty-four solar terms, it has been incredibly favorable for mortals and little demons. In just six thousand years, all advantageous plains, lakes, and rivers have been occupied by mortals, and most of the dangerous and dense mountains and valleys have been occupied by little demons."
"The cultivation realm keeps shrinking. Earth Immortals must cross the tribulation to ascend, but I feel like this Cultivation Realm is instead heading towards a grand prosperity?"
The Frost Monarch seed to sense sothing.
"Why do you think so? Wasn’t the previous Cultivation Realm prosperous enough?"
"Of course not enough!"
"The earlier Cultivation Realm had the Ancient Blood Demon Race first. They were incredibly powerful, able to survive and expand in extrely harsh environnts. At that ti, the twenty-four solar terms were ferocious, evolving and eliminating generations, changing bloodlines, before the Human Race ca along. Humans were often food, just that later they gradually learned divine techniques and Daoist techniques to slowly develop."
"But the evolution through that ti is extrely slow."
"Even in our era, most mortals could only survive in specific environnts, within various natural, or post-built fortresses. Whether they could beco cultivators wasn’t up to them, but up to their protectors."
"And now, they have more choices..."
"Is there a difference between being chosen to cultivate and choosing to cultivate yourself?"
"Isn’t there? The path of Gu is ubiquitous."
"Trust , in a few thousand, tens of thousands of years, there will surely erge a group of extraordinarily stunning human cultivators. This should be a calculated plan of the Human Race, right? Humans and Demons actually originate from the sa place, but one chose the innate path, the other the acquired one; these two paths are the biggest difference."
"The future will be splendid. We’ll just watch."
"I guess this is the change you’ve sensed. Well, let’s settle here."
After running nearly ten million miles, the Frost Monarch finally chose a spot, one that even Wang Wu could not fault.
Because the Frost Monarch’s standard wasn’t about how the scenery looked, how quiet the surroundings were, or how rich the Spiritual Qi was, but was to find a sunken place unaffected by the Yin and Yang Qi irradiation, based on the variability of the twenty-four solar terms.
It’s a signal blind spot that’s not easily scanned by celestial law early warning, which is extrely important.
It’s like a small valley below a snowy mountain, where the cold wind is biting above, but it’s like spring all year round below, sothing like that.
Wang Wu doesn’t care about these because he has Level 27 Passive Concealnt Level 9 Forget, he can go anywhere, but the Frost Monarch can’t.
"This place is really good, but I estimate in a few ten thousand years, such places will beco increasingly scarce, so we must seize this chance to each cultivate to Taiyi Ninth Tier, or else even everyday cultivation will alert the celestial law. These celestial laws will improve with the increasing number of cultivators."
"Alright, I’ll follow your lead."
Wang Wu wholeheartedly agreed to this.
In terms of big-picture view, planning, and insight, the Frost Monarch’s abilities awed and completely convinced him.
"And one more thing, in the coming tens of thousands of years, we also need to find an Astronor Prophet to guide us."
"If we still want to live freely."
The Frost Monarch said aningfully.
